An Alabama firm has become the fifth trucking company to file suit against Pilot Flying J in the wake of a federal investigation into charges that the travel center chain cheated truckers out of promised rebates.

In a suit filed in U.S. District Court in Alabama, lawyers for Osborn Transportation of Gadsen accuse Pilot Flying J of breach of contract, unjust enrichment fraud and violations of consumer protection statutes.
